I feel people who dislike the fauxtina point towards the unauthenticity of it all. Patina is developed through aging / time / experiences lived with the watch. To fabricate that seems like more of a "cash grab" by making the design aesthetics seem more vintage.
In a way, Superluminova is the complete opposite spectrum. Bright. Utilitarian. Functional. But at the same time it lacks the warmth of a softer custard color of a patinaed lume.
To me, buy what you like. I find this hobby to be such a physical/visceral experience that I don't really see the point of wearing something that doesn't speak to me. I'm a huge fan of the fauxpatina on the 60th Speedy Reissue, but would hate it on a Doxa Black Lung reissue. So in a way, the application of the color has to match the history of what I'm looking at.
